l You get taken serious by your fellow carbrained americans because ““trucks”” are normalized and small handy cars are ridiculed.
So unless you are a fragile piece of human, choose the right one.
I saw a dude on YouTube complaining that his fairly new $85k Dodge Ram work truck was breaking down. I don’t think he expected people to call him an idiot for spending that much on a work truck. I’m sure he did actually use it to haul shit around since he is a farmer but probably $35k of that is comfort stuff.
My wife’s family runs their farms with motorcycles and tractors. They seem to be doing fine. Agreed he is a not wise.
